If you don't like me, that's your problem
The realization hit her hard after the meeting. Tornado stood at the entrance of the nursery as soft flecks of alabaster sprinkled her smokey coat, staring into its depths as a slow flash of memories flickered before her. Despite how she droned on about how slow life could feel here in camp, it felt like only yesterday she'd been brought to live here in shadowclan. Now she was an apprentice, just one step closer to warriorhood. A soft puff of steamy air billowed and wafted about the bitter cold as she moves to pull her nest a little closer, or what was left of it. Most of it had torn in her struggle to maneuver around the flood of other nests created by the clan's surplus of kittens and now a new queen. Regardless she pulled it over to the apprentice's den, dropping it once she got inside and abruptly huffed with indignation at the sight of it. "Seriously..." There was even less space in here than in the nursery. Her lips pursed into a thin line as she mulled over where she could even place her nest at this point. Well, at least it would be a little warmer with all the extra bodies. Turning towards the nearest apprentice, Tornadopaw parted her jaws to speak. "You guys never mentioned how cramped it was in here. How do you avoid stepping all over one another?" She murmurs, sweeping a few bits of fragmented moss closer to her battered nest.
When I let it bother me, that's my problem
